Do I need a VPN server?

I am at school right now and SSH'ing through mindterm. I try to access my router through its webadmin and I am denied. I'm thinking that I may need to setup a VPN. What do you guys think?

BTW...if I do in fact need to...what's the best way to go about it. I know nothing about it!

not for sure what mindterm is, and also if you are at school right now is the router at home? If so what kind of router is it. Sometimes at least with the linksys ones you have to turn on remote management option to get to it. Just type in the ip with a port number after it and it will prompt for the password. Is this close to what you are doing?
